Cozy Fireplace Puzzle

This Cozy Fireplace puzzle was such a delightful image to assemble. It has been a while since assembling a Christmas puzzle so I was excited to get into this one. In the past, Christmas trees have been on the tricky side so I expected the same with this one.

Cozy Fireplace Puzzle Assembly

I have switched up from using foam boards for sorting. Since I have established that the Grateful House jigsaw puzzling trays can hold a 1000 piece puzzle laid out, (using the lid for the border pieces) I find it convenient to layout my sorting process as shown in the images. I set up the 8 trays plus the lid and the box of puzzle pieces in the centre to sort according to colours or details. I do the border on my foam board working area first so I can put the lid on the trays for movement.

On the upper right side you can see the poster which is a very nice size and you can see the image under the Company logo on the front of the box.

Even though the border looks dark as you see below, there is enough defined colours to assist with the border assembly. Following the image on the box makes the border task go quicker.

I started with the four most distinctive colours/objects first.  The red/white blanket on the chair, the window on the upper left, the presents on the lower left, the green chair, the fireplace, stockings and clock. Those were the easy parts.

I thought maybe the dogs would come together quickly but I wrestled a little bit with their eyes and then defining their fur colours outside of the fireplace colours an the fireplace wall - it was mostly seeing the shades but the fur lines on the pieces helped with the dogs.

Finally, I left the entire Christmas Tree for the last, anticipating the most problems but then as I mentioned above, the bright shades on the right side made a huge difference as it was easy to define both sides.

Here are some of the most visible close up images featured in the puzzle that show the shapes of the jigsaw puzzle pieces and some of the details you might not ordinarily see first thing, I love how the stockings are hung on the fireplace too.

Cozy Fireplace Puzzle Comments

I really enjoy assembling the Greg Giordano artwork that Cobble Hills Puzzle Company sells. His artwork is true to reality with so much detail.  I have done several of them in the past. One of my very first ones that I assembled was Christmas on the Farm which I still have in my collection today.

The Cozy Fireplace puzzle with all those adorable puppies will be a prefect Christmas puzzle to assemble with the family .
